2012 Volvo XC90 2.4L Diesel · YY62 ONN

The vehicle currently presents as roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in December 2025 at 157,057 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a period of neglect regarding tyre condition. While the vehicle currently meets all standards, the history indicates a pattern of consumable components requiring attention, though the transition to a clean sheet in the latest test suggests the current owner is addressing basic maintenance requirements. At a recorded 157,057 miles over 14 years, the XC90 averages approximately 11,218 miles per annum, which aligns with typical UK usage for a large SUV of this age. The data shows consistent annual mileage, with roughly 12,000 miles covered between the December 2023 and December 2024 tests, and another 12,107 miles covered by December 2025. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which helps prevent seal degradation and brake corrosion. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension geometry, given the recurring issues noted in 2023 and 2024. The failure in December 2023 due to a tyre below the legal limit, followed by multiple advisories in 2024 for tyres being worn on the edges, points toward potential alignment issues or worn suspension arm bushes. You should inspect the front control arms and ball joints for excessive play to ensure the uneven tyre pattern is not caused by a deeper mechanical failure. Additionally, the high mileage necessitates a thorough check of the chassis for structural corrosion, despite no specific structural advisories being listed in the most recent records.
